  1. Justin DeStories Aircraft Design Arizona State UniversityAutonomous UAV Project

  2. Objective/Requirements • The UAV team at Arizona State University is designing, optimizing, and building an autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to compete in a 2010 UAV aerial imaging contest.  • The objectives of the contest are: (1) to fly an UAV via autopilot non-stop for 20-40 minutes in a square search area of 1 square miles, and (2) use onboard/remote human detectors to locate and identify targets marked by colored alphabets Website: http://pma263webdev.bowheadsupport.com/studentcomp2010/default.html Additional contest rules: (1) fly between 100 and 750 feet above ground, (2) fly over way points (GPS), (3) some targets are along route/some are not, and (4) better performance = higher score

  3. Wing Design Flow Chart

  4. Wing Design Analysis (cont) • Relatively good at floating. • But not as fast due to the thicker airfoil (11.7%). • Is flat on the lower surface from 30% of the chord back. • It gives reasonable overall performance in respect of its lift to drag ratio. • Has gentle stall characteristics.

  5. Preliminary Weight Budget • Researched Weights of components that were going to be used for building operating the aircraft.

  6. Wing Design Analysis • From research, choose Wing Loading and used it to determine the initial size of the aircraft. • For ease of construction and stability considerations the Wing Loading for our aircraft is

  7. Wing Design Analysis (cont) • From Wing Loading and Chord length, all other wing parameters were calculated • Wing Planform Area (S) • Wing Span (b) • Aspect Ratio

  8. Wing Design Considerations • Ease of Construction • Ease of Maintenance • Transportability • 3 Separate Wing Sections 1 2 3

  9. Wing Construction

  10. Fuselage Design and Fabrication • Designed for ample room of equipment. • Batteries • Autopilot System • Flight Pack/Reciever • Antennas • Mini Computer (future)

  11. Next Up • Ground/flight testing • Testing of the Autopilot • Camera Gimbal Setup Any Question?
